Default Hampshire Regiment Opinions Welcome

O/R don't think this has the quality it should have apart from no voiding

Collars
O/R the top G/M looks as if it could be indian made

These look to be OSD's but the IOWR is very rough

7th OSD is incorrect, it’s a cast OR’s. The officer’s pattern has a crown.

This is a nice collection, thank you for sharing. The modern OSD and No 1 dress hat badge are good. I wore them both until amalgamation with the Queen Regt. The KC No 1 dress badge is also good. I have a number myself. We seem to have adopted the enamel scroll after obtaining "Royal", both with KC for a short time and then with QC.

Unsurprisingly I am a collector of Hampshire badges myself, having collected more generally over the last 50 years.

Best wishes
Nick

It’s cast from an OR’s pattern, possibly theatre if they served overseas or a fake.

I think you Guernsey and Isle of Wight Rifles badges may not be original. Regards, Paul.
